Uber is a great way to get a ride without having to hail a cab. When you finish a ride, you get a chance to rate your driver and your experience. However, the drivers get to rate you too. Here's how to find out your rating, which is normally a closely-kept secret.

The trick, revealed by Aaron Landy in a post over at Medium (linked below) is pretty easy. Just open your browser (he used Chrome but I tested this in Firefox as well) and follow these steps:

The first time you paste code, your browser will reload. Keep the console open and once the page loads again, paste code again. If you are successful, popup below will appear.

We tested it out, and sure enough, it works. Your Uber passenger rating is a bit of a secret that's only seen by drivers when you call for an Uber, so if you see your rating is a little low, that might explain why you've had problems finding a driver (if you have.)

Of course, if your rating is low, there isn't too much you can do about it other than be nicer to the drivers you do get, but overall it'll give you an idea of how well the Uber rides you've taken have gone from the perspective of the person in the driver's seat. Hit the link below to read more.

Note: Uber is aware of the script, and they're working to fix it, so give it a try while it still works! There's no guarantee it'll work forever.

Update: Sorry folks - Uber's closed the loophole and this trick doesn't work anymore. If you try now, you'll get "Undefined" as your rating. If anyone finds a new way, let us know!
